Kaliningrad should be given back to Germany as Koninsbirg, or given to Poland as reparations for Soviet occupation.

Taiwan should be allowed to declare its independence.

LOL. As Lavrov says: “go on, do it!”

Taiwan should be allowed to declare its independence.

I'd rather they continue their claim to the mainland and Hong Kong, too. (The Brit treaty was NOT with the Commies) You know, one China and all.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to back up such declarations with actions as long as we funnel money into the CCP. Somehow we managed to get by before we let the Red Chicoms into the WTO. Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Mexico and India would be better partners for our cheap stuff. S. Korea, Japan, Germany and Taiwan for our good stuff that we aren't presently making.

“Kaliningrad should be given back to Germany as Koninsbirg, or given to Poland as reparations for Soviet occupation.”

Of course it should, or at least it should be given some independent status. But now it’s part of Mother Russia, don’t you understand? It’s vital to their national security interests. And it’s always been part of Russia (well since 1945, but who’s counting?).
